Neill file server practically killed

This message is of concern only for the members of Neill group.


I just got from a vocation to find out that one of the group
members have practically trashed the file server over the past 7 days.
A prime suspect is

5.8T    emcfowla


Namely over the past week somebody have created so much data
on the file server that ZFS pool is practically
100% in use (6.5 TB of compressed data). ZFS is not a normal file
system and once that full I will have very hard time to recover the
file server operation.

I need you to stop generating any data onto NFS right now as none of
you will be able to log into the system. It will take me a day or two
to develop a strategy how to deal with this (the fact that I am 
receiving
4 interns today is not helping). Server might be unusable for at least
a week.

One possible outcome will be that we will need to buy a new file server
to resume day to day operations while we clean and rebuilt this one.

Best,
Predrag
